The League and Things i'm General
About the SHELTERS.
EDITOR DEMOCRAT: The Sandy Loyal
League held another large and enthusiast
tic meeting in the Sandy Social Hall last
order by President L. D. Wells, and after
america" had been sung by the
audience, with a vim that awoke a
patriotic feeling in the heart of the oldest
Mormon crank present, the Rev. J. B.
Thrall delivered one of his brilliant and
logical addresses holding the audience
spell bound for an hour, and giving our
Mormon friends something to think
about for months to come. A short adj
dress from DR.. j. NJ. Armstrong, showed
plainly that while he has only been a
residence of the Territory for six months
he has learned that ''we are a peculiar
people" and that he was going to lend a
helping hand to make Utah American.
We extend the Doctor cordial welcome
and shall endeavor to make his stay
among US pleasant and profitable.
Miss E. J. Colby assisted by Messrs.
Thrall and Armstrong sang the "Star
Spangled Banner" Too much praise
cannot be accredited Miss Colby for the
active part she has taken in our League.
"The Battle Hymn of the Republic"
was sung by Rev. Tharll, the audience
joined in the chorus, closed the enter
tainment, and the Loyal League scores
one more in Sandy.

UTAH COUNTY,.
The valley Of the TimpanOgus-A
REGION of Wanlfh.

The Valley Of the TimpanOgus-A
Region of Wealth.
No valley in Utah is more nature
blessed than that known as Utah County.
II is grand valley, where abundantly
exist the elements and advantages for
making homes and fortunes, and living
in health and happiness.
FOR HOME-MAKING
The opportunities are great and varied.
Ali kinds of building material are easy
to procure; the land is fertile; there is
an abundance of water for irrigation pur-
poses, and climate as healthy as found
anywhere in this country.
No place is better adapted to making
money. With capital, energy and judg-
ment, men could invest in various enter
prises in Utah county and soon become
wealthy. For those inclined to take up
manufacturing pursuits there are the adj
vantages of the best water power in all
Utah. No finer locality could be found
for the canning industry. The rails
ing OF blooded stock would
pay better here than anywere else
in the Territory. At Tintic, in
the western mountain range, there are
some of the most extensive iron mines in
the country, which, with the great advan-
tages Of Utah Lake for transportation
purposes, will yet become one of the
most profitable sources of wealth in
Utah !; and as for the lake itself, there is
no finer body of water in the West for
boating, bathing and commercial enter
prise. With all these advantages of eli
mate, natural resources and grand
scenery,
THE VALLEY OF THE TIMPANOGUs
Is destined to take foremost place as
one of the most desirable regions in these
mountains for homes, health and
wealth.
Now, if the above be true, why is it
that these things are so little known =?
Why are not these great opportunities
made more OF in the interests of advanc-
ing the growth and development of what
should now be a grand and powerful
State in these Rocky Mountains? The
answer to these inquiries is, simply be-
cause the people who have had and
still hold control of this goodly country
have stoically set their priestly powers
against the development of the country,
and ali desires to admit the ideas of a
free government-the peace, progress
and happiness of the people. However,
thanks to the indomitable energies of
determined men, land the forward tenden-
cies of our modern civilization, the peo-
pie are getting courage to relegate to the
background the reign of priests who, ere
long, will be lost sight of in the onward
march OF great and growing Territory.

if not quite, are large as that on the night
of Hamlet" and the evening rivalled
all the others in pleasing points.
AS Shylock, Booth was fresh surprise
to everyone. There were so many little
things in his acting which differed from
anything that he has shown
here before, that one would not be pre-
for much revelation. There was
ample scope for the great actor in this
part-a chance to show his force as well
as cunning-and he took advantage OF it..
AS Petruchio he was more than a sur
prise, in fact, it was hard to believe
that the same man assumed the two
roles. The author made the characters
about as nearly opposite as two persons
could be, but when placed in juxtaposi-
ton as they were last night, each is a
surprise to the other.
A large audience assembled at the
matinee this afternoon to see Hamlet y
and tonight the engagement closes with
"Othello"

Who He Was,

A gentleman sat chatting last evening
with the barkeeper of certain saloon.
Presently in strolled professional man,
known for his somewhat peculiar religi-
Gus opinions. In a few moments all
three were discussing some knotty points
in theology.
"Well, I'll tell you my opinion said
the religious professional man, 81 be-
lieve that we shall be gods in the next
world believe am god. Yes sir, I
believe l am god," he repeated as he
stretched himself up in dignified atti-
tude.
"Oh,I beg your pardon" said the
b. k. jumping up and offering the r. p. IN.
a chair, ''Take a seat god"
He sat down with benignant smile
on his serene brow, at the same time,
intimating that a schooner would just
about reach his craw.

celled in our Territory. The Sisters
have charge of everything, even to
the care of the grounds, which
with everything in and around the &C
ademy, are kept delightfully."- clean. The
immense kitchen is model of cleanli-
ness, and in the basement are To-
Gated two large boilers which sup
ply hot water and steam for bathing and
heating purposes. These are under the
care of two Sisters, who are thoroughly
acquainted with the philosophy OF me-
chanics. These two sisters do not by any
means count this as their only accom-
plishment, for they, and in fact any OF
the twenty-seven Sisters are capable OF
instructing in any and all of the depart
ments.
We mention this to show how thorough
the education of those who give their
lives to the noble work.
The good Sister who acted as our guide
informed US, when we began our visit to
the different rooms, that upon Or return
to the parlor the young ladies would play,
for us. During our rounds, we heard
several young ladies going through their
musical exercises, and presumed that
they were the ones spoken of by our
guide.
Before returning to the parlor, we
were ushered into large and pleasant
recitation room, where q class in elocu-
ton was reciting ''The Slave Ship" This
one recitation was indicative of such ex-
cellence in method of instruction as is
rarely met with in Utah. Some parts
were given in concert, and then
one of the pupils would take
up the thread of the description
and carry it along until joined by the
class. The gestures were graceful, the
reading clear and true and the voices
musical. The gestures and movement:
were in concert whether one pupil or The
whole class was speaking the lines. L
was fine piece of work and reflects
credit as well upon the Sister who in
structs as the Academy itself. When W.

we started, the Sisters remark tina

The Question OF the Hour.

Ii the Democrats do not stand by the
general features of the Riddleberger
bill and seek to enforce it by all the
means at their command, what will
they stand by? What new plan OF ad-
justment will they propose upon which
they can hope to win a victory? And
if they can't win a victory what can
they hope to achieve either for the
State, the party, or the bondholder?
Can We or any party in the State
go to battle on the bondholders' plat
form as presented by Sir Edward
Thornton and advocated by three or
four papers and q few political dead.

pons would swallow up at one swoop
several years revenue. This would
make the treasury bankrupt, and q
large increase OF taxation would be in
evitable to meet the necessary expenses
of the State and keep up our public
schools and asylums. Is there any par.
ty or common-sense man in the State
who is willing to engage in any such
experiment as that? And are the
foreign or domestic bondholders sucll
fools as TO want to make such hope.

other not to do what the people have
~ often said they ,co,Rd do-pay the
amount as fixed by thet act. Never IN
the history OF the State has there been
any subject upon which there has been
such unanimity of opinion as has ex-
isted since 1888 in reference to the final
ity of that settlement. II it is now to
be abandoned let it be by the power
which brought it into being-the will
of the people expressed at the potts,
and not by any party convention. Let
us hear from the people on this question.
They know that the Riddleberger settle
ment ia not failure. Under its ope-
ration they have seen their bankrupt
treasury replenished; their public
schools. which had been suspended,
resumed; normal schools established ;
the accommodation for their unfor-
tunate insane enlarged and increased
and their MANNED soldiers assisted and
cared for.
They nav we'll ask these gentlemen,
who propose to abandon it, what they
propose to give in exchange for the
policy which has produced these beniii-
cent results.

nothing could be more suicidal. 1t

IT seems to me, Messrs. Editors, that
this talk about abandoning the Riddle
